Sorry gates that was me that started it. If they come calling I'll be signing up to the Canadian military. No wonder him and Putin are mates, they have the same mental mindsets

I played sunday league football today.
Clearly I was the best player on the pitch.
I scored 5 and made 7 last ditch tackles.
We lost 5-0 but the rest of my team were sh it! -
Although I am glad to see that our league form and league position have turned around, I have to say that I am absolutely horrified by this shocking result and feel sorry for the denied hopeful fans who made the journey to witness this humiliation. I just hope that there is no psychological damage done now by this beating-up from these worthy prem relegation candidates that were simply a galaxy beyond us. No excuses.Comment

Did you really think we could beat a prem team away from home? We take away our share of £10 tickets, some FA prize money and perhaps TV dosh. If Leicester get relegated they'll be up there fighting for the title.Although I am glad to see that our league form and league position have turned around, I have to say that I am absolutely horrified by this shocking result and feel sorry for the denied hopeful fans who made the journey to witness this humiliation.

But to be far there were some positives. A great assist and goal from Kolli who showed real composure. And a sweet strike from Varane too.
Madsen didn't stand out for me...did he do okay and I missed it?Comment

Bournemouth are close to doing the same to WBA.
The gulf is massive and how can our £5-12k a week plsyers compete with these teams. I would be suprised if any Leicester player out there today was on less than £80k a week. Our players earn their average £8k a week for a reason, not bad luck.
A cup run is nice, but once you draw a prem team away its near impossible. We scored two lovely gosls so we should take the positive, take out £100k share and concentrate on what our season is about.Comment

Spot on only hour drive for me today but that was a pasting
Were way off prem quality would I like us to get back there absolutely but needs to be done in right way
today another cup exit round 3 same every season I’d rather we went sod it it we’re not entering as we’re a joke in the cup
back to league top 10 a huge improvement but equally so is 15th

Of course there is obviously a wage difference, but if what you say is taken for face value, then they may as well just reduce the FA Cup to a Premiership-only competition and indeed just reward the league title to the richest football club without a match being played.Bournemouth are close to doing the same to WBA.

Not far off the reality of how it plays out though. That's Sky and TV money for you and modern football.

Don't let's get too down. Everyone knows the huge gulf between even the bottom of the Premiership and the top of the Championship - and we are not that. I think we are going the right way. Let's keep our ambitions reasonable for now. I see a lot of positives recently.Comment

Like everyone else, I am embaressed by the result. I expected a defeat, but not of this proportion. Most mentioned the gap between the Premier and the Championship however, Plymouth won at Brentford so it is not the case! It is more a case of every game has its own story and in this case ... a terrifying one.Comment

Nah, I'm okay talking up our play off hopes, but thanks. No problems if you feel differently.
Of course it's a going to be tough, but we are competitive in the championship right now. It might fall away but equally it might continue.
Yes, we would get stuffed in the prem and I think we're a few seasons away (decade?) from doing a Brentford or Bournemouth. My aspirations are to get in the prem, take the £150m and use it to be a consistantly top 10 club in the championship.
I love the championship where we have a chance of being a decent club. The prem now is a circus on my opinion.Comment

Hopefully we will, but Plymouth will be riding high after beating a Premiership team away!!!!

Scoreline was a bit of a kick in the teeth. I thought Walsh should have done better, but he's been somewhat thrown in the deep end, and he was good in the league cup, so I'll let him off.
Ashby had a shocker, which is a shame as I thought he was starting to show progress of late.
I still think we were good going forward at times.
We're always crap in the cup, so it's no surprise we've gone out early.
Concentrate on the excitement of finishing mid table instead.Comment
